Was about to post the same thing Amanda….it’s amazing. He’s a one-man wrecking crew!!! :D

The schools and city didn’t fail his nephews. Ok, maybe in part on the school, but how did the city fail them? If anyone should be looked at it should be their family. The parents are the ones that are responsible for the kids, not the school and certainly not the city!

Here’s my tweets from Twitter during the meeting, accounts of what I saw and heard; it may not all make sense to you(on my part), ask if it doesn’t(I’m not a regular here, I made this for people elsewhere on the web, rather quickly, so please excuse the errors):

-I screwed that last tweet up, but if the pics aren’t posting he’s in a red Rayon shirt.

-Maya Tomato was talking and I started to laugh he’s personal friends with the Gov. and Bronx Borough Pres…

-he stated that, and he’s not answering the questions, he’s rambling.

– He said at the beginning of the meeting this [meeting] is a monarchy and he’s the monarch.

-He’s here and talking, and while Marlon was speaking about his friends in govt we were holding back laughter.

-And myriod = myraid? Keep using words he can not spell!

-12 people not including me, 4 of them are the other candidates family. Only one has showed up. (Some came and left sitting behind me)

-No clue the monarch said there’s no talking limit! (asked about the meeting time)

-His glasses are Dior…

-The other candidate, Brown, is an IT pro. (His last name is Lebron, I tell you, Rehd kept saying Brown, but Nathan Lebron didn’t correct him

-Lol, They’re from DeBootleg collection. (The Dior glasses)

-One of these people here is homeless. And it is dark in here, one light is flickering. Why does he have on sunglasses?

-I’m going to ask if he has signatures.

-Back of the library. (In smedium auditorium, way to big for Rehd meeting)

-Nathan is serious and knows his stuff. He deserves media attention. Marlon, hell no. (Not that Marlon doesn’t; however, he doesn’t have it together, he’s buffoonish [but you knew this].)

-what how did he fit in mental health into a convo about landfill expansion, I’m lost. (And how eloquent, and articulate he is, not.)

-He already said this very informal meeting. It should be formal. (Yeah the shirt, the jeans, the Clark’s style boots. SMMFH)

– He’s like instant ig’nant oatmeal answering education questions. (The other candidate had a friend who is a teacher that attended; he went hard at Rehd with a closing question, because Rehd said that he wants teachers to be generals, Pattons, etc.)

-As time goes on, sadly, he does talk the way he types. (His speech started off strong and began to become NYRehdified over the course of the meeting)

-I asked them. Nathan is a repub and I’d vote for him, he said he alright on sigs he needs 870. (cont) (Considering the alternative in before me, and the politics of Albany, yeah I would, but I am a democrat.)

-Let me not forget his use of cliches, he just said to quote that movie Lean On Me. (Didn’t hear it clearly, or wasn’t one of the more famous lines)

-You know Franklin the Turtle? Marlon favors him. (He does, some said he looks like somebody else on the way lol)

-We’re in overtime now. When a library came in, Nathan tried to wrap up with a 5 minute warning and Marlon said we have time..

-He said she just coming in here to get a date with me.(He seriously went out of his to grosse out the women in the audience, and he put up his glasses, and looked around the bare covered of a room to do so! I’ll talk more on that)

-No he didn’t, but he did just say we’re going to wrap this up “yalls don’t have to go home but you got the hell up outta here.” ( I had to fit that in 140 characters, you know the line though. Yes he said this, he got a laugh, but it was at him not with him.)

-He keeps threatening to tie up the TU journalist. Did I say Marlon needs 2000 sigs, and he hasn’t started yet. 80 a day. ( He said close the door, get a chair, tie him up, more than once he did this. The media the people that turn the tide, I don’t know what to say about that. And at the end he said don’t worry he’s going to get his. He knows the TU blogger. I’m telling you, that man had a smile on his face on the way out; he wasn’t the only one.)

-Bad analogy “kill the body murder the head” something like that. (His thoughts on getting rid of career politicians, but no, as someone running for mayor he shouldn’t have said that; it didn’t sound good.)

– It’s over spoke with Lebron’s treasurer, not Brown. Marlon kept saying Brown. (She had some interesting things to say; in short, what we’ve seen and said here on BV is what she said of the media and what politicians think of him. I’ll add to this later as well I haven’t time to write down my thoughts)

-July 23, said he’s not worried about it. I’ll be on BV in a few with a good run down of events. (The date Marlon needs signatures. I got the impression he hasn’t started. Lebron was like not my problem, I got my signatures. Much more articulate with saying that though. lol)

All I can think of when seeing this man pictures is Jillian’s in downtown Albany. A few years ago or so ago my friends and I would always go dancing on weekends and he would be there every Friday and Saturday night (of course he would be the oldest person there).
Anyway, he would always try to dance with us and rub his disgusting sweaty red suit (soaked in some old man stinky cologne) and his pimp cane all over us. Needless to say he was DENIED!

I wonder if the homeless guy was the drunk guy that Goose and I witnessed at this circus a few months back. That was when the guy fell out of his chair while NYRehd (I knew that was the BV name from a previous thread) was talking. This is the comic relief I enjoy.

Mick – thank god!! Now let the blame game begin!!! You know it’s not going to be his fault at all!! Do I hear conspiracy theories??? Lets take bets on who gets blamed the most… I nominate Ellis & Jennings!!!

Actually the blame game has started. I’m never one to say “I told you so” but I said back in January or whenever this charade started that this was going to fail before even getting on the ballots. Maybe next time he’ll listen to someone other then the voices in his head.

Amanda you know I would never do that. That’s not even remotely what I said. I just happened to see the story and shared it with the OTE crew that has been on Marlon’s back for 8 months about a plan, a theory, or something to put some validity to his idea of seeking office.

Nice to know that you folks are still orbiting around the the sun that is me. But silly speculation aside. The fact is that HUNDREDS of individuals signed my petitions and supported my efforts, and had it not been for a compromised campaign staff, which failed to deliver what they were hired to do during the final weeks of petitioning, we would not be facing a court action in order to continue this campaign. Mick I hear you talk about planning, hows this for a plan: Not only am I still in this race(barely Ill admit, but still in it nonetheless) But in the event I do not continue(which the public will know by next week), who do you think will emerge as the leading candidate for the office in 2013, since I will no doubt continue my community actvism and action on things such as education, crime, gun violence, and many other issues which Ive championed for years? Vedi, vidi, veci mick. Not only did I talk the talk, but I walked the walk and now months later im still in the game, hobbled due to no fault of my own but still in the game. And with the future looking so bright for me in this city, the fact of the matter is: My campaign has been a glowing success and that is why I havent been commenting on this little blog site, because Ive been busy cementing my public position. And now with this race entering the final strech, I guarantee that you havent heard the last of Marlon Anderson, because it’s not nearing a end, its only just begun! and thats not a plan or a theory, or something of validity, that just a plain FACT! Now do me a favor tell kmelodic I said hello. and Ill see you On Tv , on the radio, or in the T.U.!

First measure of a man, take account for your actions. You hired them so you stand by them in thick and thin. I’m certain you’d have no problem taking the glory had it come about that way. You had plenty of months to get the effort out there and you just delayed and delayed stating “part of your 2x3x5 plan” My attitude is more to just get it done, why put off to tomorrow what you can accomplish today. Spoken like a true HR rep.

I came to one of your meetings and commended you on your thoughts and ideas. Hopefully you’ll learn from this process. Hopefully you’ll learn to listen. Hopefully you’ll learn to open up the thought process to widen your thinking. In the end, those were your downfalls.

Marlon, you’re persistent. And that’s a damn good thing. Unfortunately, you’re views just aren’t in-line with a majority of your potential voters.

Marlon, you’re still stuck in the 70’s and 80’s with you’re ways of thinking. In today’s society, a majority of your potential, informed, and educated voters don’t feel as if City Hall is the cause for the problems that plague Albany. Believe it or not, I hope, most educated minorities don’t believe “the man is holding me down”. Marlon, in most of your past posts, you’re eager to blame City Hall for the crime in Albany. You continually lambast the APD for the crime that has taken place. Yet on many occasions you failed to even acknowledge the need to address the issue of parenting, or in several cases, an apparent lack of.

Marlon, you’re persistent. I won’t deny that. But instead of using you’re persistence to chase the wrong issues, or resolutions, try talking to your educated voters and see what they think.

Let’s be real Marlon, I think most of your potential voters are going to be educated individuals. To be quite frank, the ignorant really don’t tend to vote. Most of the ignorant folk I’ve encountered rather blame someone else for their problems, and scoff at the thought of politics. So why hamper your campaign by continually keeping some of your views in-line with them?

Marlon, educate yourself as to what the people who participate in elections really want. As a voter, I don’t want someone who doesn’t practice responsibility and accountability to represent me. As an educated black man, I’m not going to be sold on the concept “the white man is holding you down”. I believe in acting responsible, and holding myself/other individuals accountable for my/their actions. And you know what Marlon, I ain’t the only person out there who feels this way. So what are you going to do?
